What’s for dinner this week? Shop our delicious beef, chicken or pork for your favorite cuts! Maybe some Dunrovin drumsticks, Bluff Top pork roast, R&D tri-tip roast beef, or Porch Swing Farms ground pork will be on the menu this week! Just imagine the delicious recipes you can create with homemade pasta from Wild Hare and fresh or dried mushrooms from The Fortunate Mushroom? I bet Meadowlark Valley’s Hawaiian Sauce would be delicious on some lovely pork chops and I am sure Victoria’s Little Bread House has a sourdough focaccia flavor to complement your meals! Slice up some Cecelia and Otis sourdough or toast a Pleasant View bagel or English muffin for breakfast or amazing snacks! Try our selection of chocolate chip cookies; there’s not a bad one in the bunch! Or sample new browned butter snickerdoodles from Sorrentino Family Farmstead. Their healthy snacks are delicious or you can try their new salad dressing! Check out the herbs and spices for fresh curry sprigs from Pine Ridge Gardens, lemon thyme from Le Jardin bien-aimee or spice blends from McAnulty Mercantile! Taste the difference with farm fresh eggs; we have plenty available and lots of choices in size and colors! Working in your garden? Find some spectacular starts in the live plants category! Pine Ridge Gardens has a container cucumber that is ready to produce, some tomato plants and unique plants like her tea camellia! Check out variegated Cuban oregano from Meadowlark Valley for a beautiful and tasty herb to add to your garden, too! We can’t wait to try the candied fruit from Sweetbirds Candy Kitchen; it sounds unique and decadent! This time of year there’s so many new things popping up on the market.
